Audi's diesels are refined and the loads of torque are perfect for the typical American driving style -- stoplight drag races and interstate cruising...]]>Jan 4th 2008 1:14PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/detroit-08-preview-v12-diesel-powered-audi-r8-tdi-to-be-unveil/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/detroit-08-preview-v12-diesel-powered-audi-r8-tdi-to-be-unveil/http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OuNtw5XbxJg

soooooo looking forward for a R8 TDI! Anyway, you don't need a loud car when it looks so stunning like the R8 ;-)]]>Jan 4th 2008 1:20PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/detroit-08-preview-v12-diesel-powered-audi-r8-tdi-to-be-unveil/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/detroit-08-preview-v12-diesel-powered-audi-r8-tdi-to-be-unveil/

Well, it will look like that... and with that awesomeness - who needs V8-Sound???]]>Jan 4th 2008 1:52PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/detroit-08-preview-v12-diesel-powered-audi-r8-tdi-to-be-unveil/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/detroit-08-preview-v12-diesel-powered-audi-r8-tdi-to-be-unveil/Jan 4th 2008 1:54PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/detroit-08-preview-v12-diesel-powered-audi-r8-tdi-to-be-unveil/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/detroit-08-preview-v12-diesel-powered-audi-r8-tdi-to-be-unveil/Jan 5th 2008 3:04AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/detroit-08-preview-v12-diesel-powered-audi-r8-tdi-to-be-unveil/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/detroit-08-preview-v12-diesel-powered-audi-r8-tdi-to-be-unveil/http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-3670746534228765989&q=ant+and+pete+site%3Avideo.google.com&total=64&start=30&num=10&so=0&type=search&plindex=0

A computer managed, turbo charged, common rail, diesel engine breaks all the "rules" typically associated with diesel engines. This modern technology is fast and powerful, fast reving, and quiet too.
Also, the diesel combustion cycle is inherently more efficient than a gasoline (otto cycle) engine as it only burns enough fuel to produce the necessary heat (it is a heat engine), not the 14.5 to 1 air to fuel ratio required by a gasoline engine for combustion.]]>Jan 27th 2008 11:01PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/detroit-08-preview-v12-diesel-powered-audi-r8-tdi-to-be-unveil/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/detroit-08-preview-v12-diesel-powered-audi-r8-tdi-to-be-unveil/
A diesel engine has awesome torque for its displacement. Michelin had to design special tires for the Le Mans Audi to handle the diesel engine's awesome torque.]]>Jan 27th 2008 11:02PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/detroit-08-preview-v12-diesel-powered-audi-r8-tdi-to-be-unveil/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/detroit-08-preview-v12-diesel-powered-audi-r8-tdi-to-be-unveil/
CRAZY!]]>Jan 4th 2008 1:07PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/detroit-08-preview-v12-diesel-powered-audi-r8-tdi-to-be-unveil/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/detroit-08-preview-v12-diesel-powered-audi-r8-tdi-to-be-unveil/Jan 4th 2008 1:12PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/detroit-08-preview-v12-diesel-powered-audi-r8-tdi-to-be-unveil/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/detroit-08-preview-v12-diesel-powered-audi-r8-tdi-to-be-unveil/The R8 makes a growl but it's nothing special. I would love to see a V12 turbo diesel.

Damn yanks have to ruin everything with their ignorance of diesel...]]>Jan 4th 2008 1:20PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/detroit-08-preview-v12-diesel-powered-audi-r8-tdi-to-be-unveil/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/detroit-08-preview-v12-diesel-powered-audi-r8-tdi-to-be-unveil/Jan 4th 2008 1:25PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/detroit-08-preview-v12-diesel-powered-audi-r8-tdi-to-be-unveil/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/04/detroit-08-preview-v12-diesel-powered-audi-r8-tdi-to-be-unveil/Jan 4th 2008 1:37PM
